1st bird – Shoot into the pile of boxes at the right, you don’t need to get the bird, just want to have fewer boxes left. 2nd bird – Shoot a high arcing White Bird so it comes down just to the right of the first structure, drop the egg between the structure and the card.

This should blow up the structure, the birds on the car, and fling the white bird into the chains on the right, finishing those off. When those drop, it should either get the bird on the right or enough boxes for it to topple.

This is the method I’ve been using until I realized that remnants of the first tower can have more than 10K points. Most I got with two birds was 103K and with flinging Terrence to clean up debris improved to 107,790 (currently 850 points behind top score) with room for improvement and consistent scoring of 105K+ (below is a pictorial of one of those runs).

Fling first bird at half speed over the first tower. Accelerate into the pile of boxes just above the big cage. This should take out almost all of the boxes and the blue bird, but the blue bird is not necessary.

Second bird at 45 degrees, drop bomb just right of the cart. This will wipe out the cart and drop the chains, and the blue bird if it is still there.

Thanks for that @f91jsw Improved my score by 6k:) I actually messed up my first bird & forgot to accelerate so went straight through the top cage and continued down into the pile of boxes which left IMO an easier angle for bomber to do her thing;)

Yes! At first I was using a shallow arc to the far right, but found I got better results shooting yellow up steeply, then driving down into the same box above the big cage. Following birds the same as @f91jsw. I aimed third bird at wood block.

@f91jsw thx for the strat worked great. I actually go after the blue bird first and the rest of the boxes and the big cage are destroyed with the 2nd shot. That blue bird doesn’t always die after the chain drops on his cage that’s why I targeted him first.

Another strat to get around 100k: yellow bird into the down left wood of first structure. This collapses completely or is getting weaked. Then white bird in a high arc, drop bomb between pile of boxes and middle structure. Carcas shoots up, destroying the sand boxes. Finish with Terence, who now destroys more debris as when left structure isn’t weakened. Rest of cart now also disappears. 1bird bonus, still some debris left.
